According to a Department of Employment paper, transport and logistics employers are more likely than others to employ an apprentice or trainee because they plan to up-skill them and keep them for the long term. Great things are coming for those who’ve been in the industry for some time, too. For example, there’s set to be a 3.5% growth in the number of jobs for specialist supply, distribution and procurement managers. It’s up to you to be ready to step up and take on management responsibilities. Luckily, we can help with that.
